Columbus discovers India
The number of days to India is now in single digits. Life is full of disenchantment. People are now irrelevant. Beauty does not enthuse me. Cold is not a factor when going out in a T shirt. The mind refuses to think. Everything I left behind me is coming back, again. 16 months of non involvement in other's lives is coming to an end.
I am sure I would love the 'bugging' questions relatives ask, the constant noise at home, someone else cooking and cleaning, a car to drive and just being back home again. Its a different world altogether and my mind needs to swap the environmental settings in less than a week now. Compare IIT Delhi, Aurobindo Marg, Ma, Baba, friends, noise, pollution, millions of brown colored people, ramshackled DTC buses, auto rickshaws, PVR Cinemas, Barista, Modern School, Delhi Metro, HOME---against---CMU, INI, snow, Church, Nicole, Ash, Jon, Eric, Evan, Zain, desi junta, booze, Waterfront, Craig Street, Hummer, Washington DC, Steelers, interviews, stress and yet AMERICA. Life is at a dichotomous stage and only time will tell how I feel when the Captain orders to fasten the seatbelts over Delhi airspace next weekend. This Columbus is coming back to India.
